Patent CA-2434824-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SEITZ PETER
IPC: D06H1/00
Filed: 2003-07-09
Abstract: Identification devices are known, e.g. in the form of labels to be attached by sewing or adhesive, monograms and the like, for the individualizing identification of items of clothing, shoes, shoe inserts or similar objects to be worn on,a person's body.
